  1. thats my poor helpless baby daughter you are taking the piss out of! shame on you all! (N)

    At what point have we taken "the piss" out of your child? We have meerly taken "the piss" out of the competiion itself.

    Honestly, you come on to a forum full of 12-20 somethings (and older I'm sure) and expect for people to vote for your spawn in some cutest baby comp? Are you real? This isn't nittingforums.com

    If you look back at the topic, I think you will find not at one point has anyone been targetting you or your child at all.

    I think you need a reality check.

  2. what was the point in that, iv made alot of friends on this forum from ride meets and this was just an easy way of communicating to them all. their is no rule in asking for my friends to vote, and what harm will it to have a few extra votes from other biking enthusiasts? :unsure:

    if you actually look on the website, there is a space to give yourself a plea for votes, and everyone has done this on each others.

    I'm afraid I have also had to report you to the event organisers and compleatly agree with NVWOCI WVS that it is very unsporting of you to advertise your child in such a manner.

    It seems that this is not a cutest baby competion, but more of a how many friends, people I don't know and any other random entity I can persuade to vote for my child competion.

  3. Worth having a good look at the rear of your frame to make sure its striaght too! Sometimes if a wheel seems to have gone out of dish, it could mean the frame has twisted slightly. Or in my case, was never straight from the factory :(

  4. In the waiting list for a place in the Royal Navy, so I'm down the gym as much as I can.

    I've found the tredmill to be a godsend for riding, my cardio has improved way more on that than what the XC bike did for me.

    Living on a diet of mainly soup, baked potatoes, beans, tuna, fruit and salad. Needed to loose weight for my medical, was 16st 6lbs, now 14st but need to get down to 12st 10lbs for a BMI of 25!!!

  5. Hi all,

    Need to get myself a new lever, was looking into getting one of the new HS33 levers.

    My question is, with the new lever design is there the same amount of TPA adjusment with the lever?

    The reason I ask is when I set my brake up, I always find that the lever bites too soon and I cannot move the cylinders out any furhter due to the cranks hitting them :~ So I usually compensate by having the TPA wound all the way in.

  6. Theres a few people here who ride brakeless.

    Brakeless can be quite fun, it will teach you alot about riding and how not to totally depend on your brakes. Its not so much a case of what you should learn and more of what you want to learn. You could keep it real and try and focus on the core trials things, or mix it up with whatever the hell you like.

  7. That hubshell looks dangerously similar to the ProIIt's the one before last that cracked all the time :ermm:

    Hope it IS beefier :P

    You mean the ones without the reinforced 'bulge' on the driveside, which these new ones clearly have?

    Do that then add another 2 pawls. Then it would be 72 ep yeh? same as a king. Surely 2 more pawls wouldn't make it noticably heavier though?

    Increasing the pawl count is going to increase the resistance to the wheel freewheeling, to coutner that they would have to put softer springs in. I'd rather 4 pawls.

  8. lol doing something wrong if you are snapping Sapins. I swear by them, neve snapped one in 7? years I have been using them.

    Not doing anything wrong at all :turned: Possibly a bad batch?

    I've used DT since I started riding, been building wheels with them for about 6 years, never any trouble.

    I did rebuild the wheel to make sure it wasn't the build, but the issue is still there.
